Here is another hot tip from the staff at DT: The sketchier a car looks on a craigslist advert –the better the potential deal. This next car is missing its keys and title, but it has a long roof, very clean engine bay, and a set of Cali black plates for a bargain price. Find […]
Check out this 1965 Volvo 122S Custom bidding here on eBay for $8,988 reserve-not-met located in East Moriches, NY with auction ending today.
Remember back a few years ago when that pistachio colored Volvo Amazon sold for some nutrageous price and it looked like the Amazon market was going pecans? Yeah. It turns out that some rampant price speculation had batted the bidding on that out of the park, and Amazons are still the decent looking, budget classics […]
Today seems like a great day to kickoff a new feature — an experiment, as they say. Here is a quick collection of the best cars found at other sites on the web. Today you’ll find a custom Beetle from Oddimotive, a Mazda pickup masqurading as a Ferrari from Jalopnik’s Nice Price or Crack Pipe, […]
Time for a game of “pick your poison”, where we show you two beaten to death piles patina’d classics and you pick which one you’d own. Of course, we’ll kick off today’s featurette with a couple of Volvos, because that’s the way I roll. Take your pick between this 1973 Volvo “rockin rocker panels” 1800ES […]

The Volvo Amazon was built from 1956 through 1970 and sold as the 121/122S/123GT outside of Sweden. It was the hard working and industrious older brother of the P1800/1800S/1800ES sports car, to which it donated its engine, transmission, and suspension options. Available as a coupe, sedan or wagon the Amazon makes a cool vintage driver […]
It never fails to happen. Post a nice looking car for a decent price and suddenly a better one will pop up in the tips. We could post a running/driving $1k short wheelbase 911 and someone would find a $500 example with nicer pictures. The wagon from yesterday was offered for a very reasonable price, […]
The Volvo Amazon (badged the 121/122S/123GT outside of Sweden) was the more practical, more upright older sibling of the P1800/1800S/1800ES sports car, to which it donated its engine, transmission, and suspension options. The Amazon isn’t traded by tweed jacket wearing collectors at pebble beach, instead it can be seen at your local car show or […]
